The two critical aspects that go mostly missing in experiencing our lives fully as we become more and more mature are slowness and silliness. There is not much literature on these two vital aspects of our lives that is mostly looked down upon in a world dominated by speed and seriousness, or the act of it. Yes, being dead serious or acting so is the only acceptable solution if you want to be taken seriously by your family, friends and peers. Along the way unwittingly your professional life has been mixed with your personal life. The concept of work from home has eliminated the blurred line between professional and personal space. Seriousness finds entry into a space that is meant to be silly, and the fast pace enters a life that is meant to be slow. Slowness and silliness thus have no room left in your office-home space. This book, in two parts, explores these two vital elements of our lives that are on the verge of extinction…being silly and being slow...that are mostly missing! #BeSilly #BeSlow
